Re: B26 raid 24 December 1944

This must be two different engagements. In this French-German combat only one French B-26 was lost (Ofw Isken?), while the French Spitfires claimed two Bf109s and two Fw190, losing a Spitfire IX and it's pilot. The Bf109s were from almost certainly from 13./JG53.

According to Kracker Uffz Otto Jakob "KIA 24 December, 1944 during aerial combat with a French Spitfire of GC 2/7, piloted by Jean M. Doillon (KIA), at Dunningen. The Spitfire crashed at Dunningen also."
